Artichoke

The artichoke, along with the Rose, is one in a two-part attempt to overlap a plants leaf and petal geometry with Zedist tessellations. I wanted to show the similarities between living organic systems and crystalline inorganic shapes. This piece was also a monochromatic study. Plants display some of the most ornate and intricate natural patterns and long range order on the planet. Original painting 18″ x 24″. Oil on Canvas.
